My 3.8 no oh gtp turned off while i was driving and pushing down on gas now doesnt want to turn back on sounds like a fuel problem not sure i tried putting some starting fluid but it turned on once for like a second now it doesnt want to start any help?
 


see if theres fuel pressure in the fuel rail, theres a black cap on the rail take it off and push the valve in, if its got fuel it will spray out, watch your eyes, use a rag to cover the valve.
 


There may be some fuel squirting out at the schrader valve, but that doesn't mean there's enough pressure present to start the car. The only way to really know is to put a pressure gauge on it, and see how much it's putting out. I'd start with that.
 


My 04 gt does the same thing sounds like..... accelerating and it just cuts out feather the gas it may stay running, have had problem for 2years spent a butt ass load of money and still nothing.... it wanted to start once after then nohing till I open the door and kill all power, yhen it starts and runs fine till next time .. I was told it was he throttle positioning sensor and nothing changed .....
